Photo quests in Dallas

What the catalogue actually holds here, and which of it is worth rearranging a day around.

Dallas holds 13 quests across six categories, with no single one of them defining the place: Art and Food are level at three quests each. The one category with nothing in Dallas so far is Beach.

Two of them are tier 1 — finds rather than fixtures, and the one tier whose check-in asks for PRO; the other eleven are open on any plan. Tier 3 covers nine of them, which is the label for what a visitor would expect a travel app to have anyway.

Art covers the work and the building around it, so a mural on an ordinary street counts alongside the collection with a ticket desk. A food quest names the dish rather than the restaurant: the pin sits on the room that serves it, but what you are going for is the plate. Every check-in works the same way: the geotag your camera wrote into the photo has to land within 200 m of the quest's own point.

By category

Each of these opens the whole category across every city, with the Dallas quests among them.

Tier 1

The unexpected ones

The two quests in Dallas the catalogue files as finds rather than fixtures — the half of a city a guidebook has no room for.

Questions

About quests in Dallas

How many photo quests are there in Dallas?
13, across six of the seven categories the catalogue uses. The deepest groups are Art (3), Food (3) and Nature (2). Nothing in Beach here yet — a category appears in a city the moment a quest is published into it, so the gaps move. Among them: Sixth Floor Museum, White Rock Lake and Traveling Man.
What is there to do in Dallas beyond the obvious?
2 of the 13 quests in Dallas are tier 1, which is the catalogue's own mark for a find rather than a landmark: the pipeline that writes it is told that tier 3 is "everything a visitor would expect a travel app to have", and that tiers 1 and 2 are "only the unexpected finds". Dallas holds two at tier 1, two at tier 2 and nine at tier 3. The tier 1 quests here are Traveling Man and Bath House, which fall under Art.
Can you do all the Dallas quests on one trip?
Not as one walk. The outermost of the 13 is 28 km from the middle of the Dallas list, which makes this a region rather than a neighbourhood: several are a day out in their own right and are worth planning as such rather than fitted in.
Which Dallas quests can you do for free?
11 of the 13 can be checked in on the free plan, and all 13 can be read and travelled to without paying anything — the catalogue is open signed out, on every plan. PRO covers the check-in on the hardest tier, which in Dallas means two quests: Traveling Man and Bath House.
How do I prove I visited a place in Dallas?
Take the photo at the place and upload it. Your browser reads the location the camera wrote into that file and measures it against the quest's own coordinates; inside 200 m the check-in counts. The distance is measured to the point, not to the city: being in Dallas is not what is checked, and a photo taken across town from Sixth Floor Museum fails exactly the way one taken at home does. A file with no location in it cannot be checked at all, and a photo that has been through a messaging app usually arrives that way — upload the original out of the camera roll rather than a copy someone sent back to you. The Food quests in Dallas sit on the room where the dish is served rather than on the dish, so that address is what the 200 m is measured from.
